***OKIES in the BYC III ***

Oh. And while we're at it...I have ***2*** Guineas, actually that's 1 more than I want. A month ago a purple Guinea showed up in our yard and I had to pawn it off on someone. Now last night 3 more Guineas showed up! They just seem to take up with my 2 and mine show them where all the feeders are and they settle in to stay

. Somebody tell them I don't LIKE Guineas. And there's a girl in the bunch-I heard her!
 
Mitzi this is the 3rd hatch in a row they were hatching 1 to 2 days early. My temps are right on 99 but still early. I wondered if maybe they has started developing before I set them but who knows. It didnt hurt the hatch so I am good with it lol.

some people have cats show up others have dogs as for you it seems to be guinea. you can make a tighter fence or just go with it lol. not much more advice i can give on that.
 
dose any one know if i dust butters( the kitten) with D.E. will it kill and prevent fleas? Gave the poor thing probly the biggest bath its ever seen then used tweezers to get as many fleas off as possible. Still to young for the treatments.

Mitzi just sent all those roug guineas to me. I dont mind the noise most days. I love watching them. It is comical to just watch them.
Good, I'm glad to hear that. I talk to this little guy and his pip chip just wiggles like crazy. Yep-he's gonna be my baby

Believe me-if I could catch these Guineas they would SOOOO be at your house lol

Won't do a thing for fleas and contrary to popular opinion it won't help with lice on birds either.
Give him a bath and let him soak in the shampoo for about 10 minutes to drown the fleas. The problem is treating the environment.

I think front line can be used on very very young kittens.

WAIT!! Are they young??? They might be mine! I'm missing 5. I've been missing them since their first night in the barn.

You know I remembered this past week that there was a sign up in February when we moved in for missing guineas, wonder if that's where the purple one belonged? It was funny cause me and DH joked "guineas don't go missing, they get eaten" :p
